The upcoming 2024-25 UEFA Champions League final is set to be a historic occasion, marking the very first official competitive meeting between Italian giants Inter Milan and French champions Paris Saint-Germain.
While this final will be their inaugural formal encounter, the two clubs are not complete strangers on the pitch. They have previously faced each other six times, exclusively in friendly or preseason matches rather than official competitions.
Looking at their individual histories in the prestigious Champions League final, this will be Inter`s seventh appearance in the showpiece match. The Milan club has a balanced record in their previous six finals, securing three victories and suffering three defeats.
Paris Saint-Germain`s presence in the final is less frequent. This match will be their second appearance in the Champions League final. Their only prior experience was in the 2020 final, where they were defeated by German side Bayern Munich.
The most recent informal meeting between Inter and PSG took place before the start of the 2023-24 season during a friendly tour in Japan. In that encounter, Inter emerged victorious with a 2-1 scoreline.
